to drink
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, infinitive absolute; expresses the simple active action of the root in non-finite form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal infinitive absolute expresses the simple verbal action in its pure form. "To drink" preserves the root sense of consuming liquid and reflects the non-finite, verbal-noun character of the infinitive absolute. |
